Inoue is just simply getting high improvement in his every fight and this one will also held inside Japan this is his comfort zone which will give him a huge advantage and will gonna make him easily win this one.

No doubt that he's improving time after time but with the venues that he's agreeing with where his matches are going to happen, this is what makes other fans off a bit of him. There's a reason why he wants to box at most times inside his territory and country and that's a boost for his career and certainly, it's all about the cheer of the people that he's getting and the confidence that he's getting. I wonder if any match of his goes out Japan, will he able to win it? It's like always the home court advantage that he's getting but that's far from being skilled. Because no doubt that Inoue sure is a skilled and undefeated boxer.

Inoue is fighting in a stadium with 50k capacity. Smaller fighters just don’t draw those kinds of crowds anywhere else in the world. Inoue has fought outside of Japan several times. It is not a matter of not wanting to fight outside of his home, that’s just where it makes the most financial sense to stage his fights. For example, we can see that the Garcia vs. Haney fight is struggling to sell tickets because neither fighter has a large fanbase in New York.

Financially, it make sense for Inoue to fight in his own country because he has a big fan based. And we understand that there are a lot of good Japanese fighters not just Inoue in this time, but they all fought in Japan as well. But as this sports is global, as a boxer you have to think of fighting outside your comfort zone and be in the US. Canelo was unknown until he fought in the US vs Floyd and after that he never went back to Mexico until the John Ryder fight. Haney vs Garcia will do good I think, most likely by now his fans has no choice but to travel to New York to watch the fight although Ryan Garcia said that he still wants the price of the ticket to be lower as what is being offered by their sponsors.

Inoue should follow now that he is still on his prime. he can make a lot of good fights in the US with better venue. I don't think he can't win in the US as he already had fights before but fighting a championship in Japan only will only limit his opportunity to make good money. Inoue has the potential to reach what Pacman had achieve, it's just that he doesn't take a lot of risk and he value so much his undefeated record.

He is with the top Rank, I'm sure Bob can market him in the US but I guess his camp just want to protect his legacy as having a pound for pound like Inoue is not something they enjoyed most of the time, I mean I haven't known a boxer before from Japan who is as accomplished as Inoue now.

He is co-promoted by another Japanese manager, but yes he is with Top Rank but I don't think that Arum are forcing him to go and box in the US unlike Manny Pacquiao. In this stage he could really reach what Manny had done and even more. Tyson himself says that Inoue is better than Manny, but he refuses to fight in the US so we won't see how Americans are going to embrace him.

And most likely why he is not in the top list of pound for pound, although that list could be debatable. But unlike Manny during his prime and winning in the US, he become #1 for years. Maybe the camp of Inoue will go to the US once they go up in weight class at 126 lbs.

As bookies are clearly having Inoue as the heavy favourite, if you do want to bet, find another betting line like what round will it end and how rather than bet on Inoue with 1.07 odds. Even the betting line of will the fight go the distance is just 1.14 at stake and so with others, so bookies are not expecting this fight to last.

There's a very slim chance that a boxer which Inoue would fight will last in the ring. Last time I saw Inoue had some trouble but was able to make an adjustment was with Donaire, but the rematch was too easy for him as Donaire got knocked out. Inoue just got better and better in every fight, so I think if Nery will remain aggressive, he would also suffer a devastating KO from Inoue, that body shot though.

Any odds below 1.50 is not attractive to me, so I would just wait until the fight is very close so all the markets will be available, maybe Inoue winning by KO in just 1-3 rounds, it's sure gonna have a very attractive odds.

It's already out,

The over/under round is 6.5, I think that is a good round to begin with, they've at least given Nery 6 rounds to convince us if he will last or not against the power of Inoue. And the odds is 1.85, that is good enough and very appealing already.

But for more risk taker out there, and I know a lot here might go with this,

Nery, Luis By Decision 15.00.

Huge odds if Nery can survived. Tapales almost did it as he gets into 10 rounds. So just a matter how strong Nery and if he can go full 12 rounds against the Monster.

Inoue's team mentioned before that they will take 2 to 3 title defenses and then they might consider moving up again to 126. I am also expecting Inoue to move up in weight next year.

While the match hasn't happened yet, they've got plans already. I guess that they're confident that Inoue is going to win easy against Nery but with that confidence, doesn't mean that they're going to go easy with his training.

They could really be very confident here, Inoue has the best record in a championship fight and the odds Nery just like the rest of Inoue's opponent is a huge underdog. I think the camp of Inoue is not going to overlook Nery, we have seen him pushing himself in training to the point that sometimes he got injured and have to postponed the fight.

We will see him at 126 lbs, and possible next year. I think he scan still be as competitive to that weight class.

Just a matter of time before he can adapt adding 4 lbs in his small frame.

That might be his last flight before he retires or else he'll not be contended if there's no thrill to that next weight division that he's moving.

But before we talk about that, let's wait until this match ends as Nery no doubt is the underdog on this match. Or as fans, we're just also confident at all on how this match will end.

With that, we have to wait in less than a month.

As bookies are clearly having Inoue as the heavy favourite, if you do want to bet, find another betting line like what round will it end or how, rather than bet on the major betting line with Inoue as winner at 1.07 odds. Even the betting line of will the fight go the distance is just 1.14 at stake and so with others, so bookies are not expecting this fight to last.

Going up to another weight division is no easy feat. It depends on how Inoue can cope up easily to such weight change without affecting his boxing strengths and skills. He is still far from his retirement I believe, so he may really go up in terms of weight division in the near future.

Inoue's team mentioned before that they will take 2 to 3 title defenses and then they might consider moving up again to 126. I am also expecting Inoue to move up in weight next year.

The difference though is Haney is still young and he just moved up in his second weight division while Inoue already is 6 divisions above once he enters 126. But it should be doable. However I guess 126 is Inoue's final division as he is already in his early 30s. It will be more risky to continue moving up in weight while fighting bigger and heavier opponents.

As long as the boxer can take his power in the higher weight category that's still fine, it will only be stopped once they can hurt their opponents in their new weight division, like in the case of Canelo against Bivol, so Inoue can challenge himself and go further, until he is stopped by one of the top boxer in that division.

We don't know how far Inoue can go because he is a very disciplined fighter and he has good skills featherweight will be the most challenging division, when Pacquiao was campaigning in the lightweight I thought he could not hold out but he proved that he was an extraordinary until he reaches the super welterweight.

Even if he is so discipline, his body has limitation as how far he can get it to mature and put added poundage. Manny is very different, it was like his genes is build for boxing. I will agree that maybe at 126 lbs, Inoue could have pushed his body already.

But let's see if he moves up in that division and see how his performance is. Maybe there is power still in both hands, but the competition is obviously getting harder and tougher and at 5'5 in height, he could be physically at a disadvantage.

The only thing I doubt about Inoue is what will be his performance outside Japan since he always fight inside his homecourt which give him advantage. Maybe if he can able to fight on US and take those big opponents then maybe we can really compare his greatness to Pacquiao just like what other people say that he is more better than the legend. Many is really built different since he accept those big challenges on his career and we can say that they defeat those big names on the industry that's why he became well known and the only 8 division champ in history of boxing.

But lets try to see on what Inoue could able to do if he can still dominate if he go up. But its undeniable that he is so good, he just need to prove that he's more good by try to get out on his comfort zone and bet those well known guys in this era.

He fought a few fights outside of Japan, and if I'm not mistaken, including the WBSS. But I do agree that if he really wanted to reach out and become a global superstar like what Manny did, he could fight out of his comfort zone and go to the US and see how boxing fans are going to love him.

But it seems that Bob Arum can't convince him, and so he let him decide to fight in Japan for now. Instead of losing his prize pupil, and probably the Japanese culture has something to do with it and just remain inside. Hopefully at least one of his bigger fights if he moves to 126 lbs should be in the US.

That's why he has to do it as soon as possible when he's done with these matches. More title defenses and moving to the next weigh for him to have this undefeated record on history.

It's probably boring on the division that he's in when no one can beat him.

^^ If I'm not mistaken, Brandon Figueroa has been calling Inoue at 126 lbs and all those champions have been taken notice already that there could be a chance that Inoue will go up again and challenge them in the future.

We really don't know yet, but if we look at Inoue's frame, he could easily add 4 more lbs to his frame or he could be walking at 126 lbs or more in off season so I think there will be no problem for him. And the power though, he could be more powerful when he goes up in weight, similar to Devin Haney wherein he was not known to be a big puncher at 135 lbs, but when he moves to 140 lbs, he knock down a supposedly power puncher in Regis Prograis.

Inoue's team mentioned before that they will take 2 to 3 title defenses and then they might consider moving up again to 126. I am also expecting Inoue to move up in weight next year.

The difference though is Haney is still young and he just moved up in his second weight division while Inoue already is 6 divisions above once he enters 126. But it should be doable. However I guess 126 is Inoue's final division as he is already in his early 30s. It will be more risky to continue moving up in weight while fighting bigger and heavier opponents.

Thanks for this info, yeah I have to look at it, and true, he started at 108 lbs, Junior Flyweight/Light Flyweight and moving up to 126 lbs is already a 6 weight class jump from where he started his career.

And then 4 divisional champ, maybe going up will be his 5th championship. Having a knockout ratio of 90% in championship fight, that another record as we haven't witnessed that kind of winning in championship in a dominating fashion.

And the power though, he could be more powerful when he goes up in weight, similar to Devin Haney wherein he was not known to be a big puncher at 135 lbs, but when he moves to 140 lbs, he knock down a supposedly power puncher in Regis Prograis.

Inoue's team mentioned before that they will take 2 to 3 title defenses and then they might consider moving up again to 126. I am also expecting Inoue to move up in weight next year.

The difference though is Haney is still young and he just moved up in his second weight division while Inoue already is 6 divisions above once he enters 126. But it should be doable. However I guess 126 is Inoue's final division as he is already in his early 30s. It will be more risky to continue moving up in weight while fighting bigger and heavier opponents.

Yeah, I think that is a good strategy on their part, just to let his body settled down a bit in this weight class, and then try to defend it which I think this division still has like 3 good names that Inoue can bet easily before moving up at 126 lbs.

126 lbs could be his final destination as boxers there are well rounded and some of they have physical attributes that Inoue has face like the tall Rey Vargas, or Luis Lopez which body looks very solid at this weight class. So it will be a very big leap again for Inoue going up to Featherweight.

As long as the boxer can take his power in the higher weight category that's still fine, it will only be stopped once they can hurt their opponents in their new weight division, like in the case of Canelo against Bivol, so Inoue can challenge himself and go further, until he is stopped by one of the top boxer in that division.

We don't know how far Inoue can go because he is a very disciplined fighter and he has good skills featherweight will be the most challenging division, when Pacquiao was campaigning in the lightweight I thought he could not hold out but he proved that he was an extraordinary until he reaches the super welterweight.

Nery has only 1 loss and 0 draws and then this kind of record is one of the best professionally. Will Nery going to give Inoue with his first loss? We don't know but I agree to you that he should plan well and I think that with all of the matches that he's got, he's going to come prepared against Inoue and even with that, the monster will always be consistent with all of his stance and has always been careful with all of the matches that he's got and so with this upcoming one.

That's what Nery is preparing to do, in this article he was quoted saying that he did not consider Inoue an extraordinary fighter.

Quote

Nery told BoxingScene in an interview through a Spanish translator. “But I've seen his fights and I think he's overrated. I think he's an ordinary fighter, or at least that's how it appears to me. I'm going there looking for the knockout. I'm not going to Japan looking for a decision.

Luis Nery Calls Naoya Inoue ‘Overrated, Overconfident and Ordinary

Although the boxing community thinks differently he will find out on the fight night if he is an extraordinary or just an overrated fighter, I don't think Nery is the one who can deal with Inoue his first loss, he just doesn't have the skill and the power to do that, Marlon Tapales is stronger and skillfully than Nery that's my assessment, but let's see in the fight night.

Everyone is very confident, and the closest that could have been Inoue is the Filipino Flash, Nonito Donaire. But Donaire is on the path of going down and losing his prime years already. And with that, I think a prime Donaire will beat anyone in 122 lbs not name Inoue.

So as much as Nery think he even has equal chance to beat Inoue, this is like a "miracle" if he upset the Japanese monster.

What I like to see is Casimero vs Nery, at least in my mind this is going to be a competitive fight as both are almost equal. But against Inoue they are not match with the Naoya, too fast and powerful.

That's okay, if that's what he thinks about Inoue that's totally fine as he's entitled for his opinion and as the opponent of Inoue, he should give himself some confidence that Inoue ain't that strong. He's just going to see it when both of them are inside the ring already. We as fans understands how strong Inoue is and how he has beaten the shit out of his former opponents. We will see if his opinion about him being overrated is real or surreal.

Marlon Tapales is stronger and skillfully than Nery that's my assessment, but let's see in the fight night.

Despite that Tapales lost against Inoue, he was even praised on how tough he was. He just can't go with continuous jabs against Inoue and he should do that and I think during the fight, he was just looking for some jackpot and lucky punch but it didn't happened. Still, props to him for being strong and tough and he doesn't need to prove himself anymore against Inoue.
